"She Bellowed!!!" LOL. Sorry, couldn't resist. ahem...In my experience, the first round of disputes can be kept pretty simple; basically "nuh-uhhh". Regardless of the mix of derogatories, about half of them will fall off first try. There's no way to predict which half. A second round of similar disputes a month or two later will knock a few more off. Then you get serious and start plotting strategy against the remaining listings. Good Luck!
